The Oscar nominations, delayed by Los Angeles wildfires, will be announced virtually. "Emilia Perez," a transgender cartel musical by French director Jacques Audiard, is expected to lead the field, though it has faced controversy over its portrayal of Mexico and transgender issues. The film has received high praise but also backlash from critics. Other strong contenders include "Conclave," "The Brutalist," and "Wicked." The ceremony is still scheduled for March 2.
